SUBSCRIPTION HA-IfiS, City Carrier, per week. 16c; Per Month. B) Mall, Per Month. 40c; Per Danger In Increases IS IN FQR very serious trouble if CANADA prices continue to climb. Our only hope for averting disaster is if Canadians will exercise some self discipline, stop forcing wages higher. So Gilbert. Jackson, prominent consulting economist, says. Very real danger that Canada's standard of living will be permanently reduced because of the price situation here and international trade conditions exists, he says. The third bout in the upward wage spiral which now appears to be starting in the United States, together with the explosion of a similar kind which apparently is being set off by the latest decontrol ,- order in Canada, has grave implications for the Canadian cost of living. (The Dominion Bureau of Statistics cost of living index is now up 36.6' from its 1938 level). 'A new round of wage increases at this time will have extremely serious consequences, Jackson says. The plight of the white collar and fixed incomes generally he pointed out will be worse than ever. The fundamental point, Mr. Jackson points out, is: "Each income payment to someone is a cost to someone else. When each income payment rises so does the cost rise somewhere in our economy." Workers today are not facing a lower standard of living than, pre-war, Mr. Jackson says but only a lowering of the higher standard of living which they became accustomed as a result of the war. THE HERITAGE OF YOUTH MUCH IS BEING SAID TODAY in regard to the matter of youth, a subject which will always be in the world, and one which the older and - more mature people have to take into consideration in-the interests of the future and of makjng life more attractive to the younger generation. It may be that gome people regard youth as something which has to be. tqlerated and, one of those necessary evils through which all human beings have to find their own way of life, .and that by experience the younger people will eventually find the errors of their ways. Possibly the past generation did not give enough attention to the needs of younger people, and even today some believe that too little thought is given to the boys and girls' who some years later will be in charge of the affairs of the world. Whatever may be said by the older citizens, particularly those who have lived through two wars which endeavored to destroy civilization itself, and many of whom look upon the morals of our. sons and daughters, as being on a lower plane than those of the past generations, it must be admitted that youth itself remains, the same through the ages, and that there must be a perfect understanding between the older people and those who are following them in life. "All the worJd'-s a stage," said Shakespeare, and this stage must be set so that the opening acts of the drama will be a prelude, to a more pleasing middle age than some' have had and that the final act, when the curtain goes, down, will be what is commonly called "a happy ending' It is to be hoped, therefore, that those who came after us. m the great heritage of life will be able to live up .to. those ideas, and ideals which the present so-called civilization most desires and that all the opportunities youth can possibly have will be at its disposal to ensure the creation of a world free from "crooked thinking and Inhuman actions;" t JUST A FISH PORT SAN. FRANCISCO, has long had a fish dock where the consumption of sea f opd in variety, of super-lative toothsomeness and -easy on the eyes is disposed of. Perhaps it's one of the things that cause people .to associate fish, served with style and taste, with California's great port. "' PPnce RuPert in a sense, is a fish city. From the standpoint of convenience and econpmy in shipping catches to the chief markets, it is perfectly true. B.ut o.utside of that, fish in Prince Rupert is the same as fish, anywhere else.

Reminiscences By w.J. and Reflections Shipbuilding brought a lot of prairie dwe.Ue.rs, this way during the war, but it was not to be expected all would remain. One can feel at home, living on the plains. Scenery is not entirely essential to happiness although it can help. Some folks curse the prairies and say they wiil go away. Yet they stay. We arrived in Saskatoon on a dull afternoon in spring, coming from down east to wprk on a paper. In 1906-07, Basicatoon was not so hot although there were signs of more life. There might have been six or seven thousand population, about 99 per cent born optimists. They boosted in and out of season. Elections were warm, and friendships prevailed in between times. There was not much to boost, except a blue sky and fertile soil. Take1 Goose Lake, for. example! The finest wheat raising area in Canada, or at any rate in the province. Yes sireel And it was unquestionable, about Saskatoon being the best distribution point in Saskatchewan. But even al- lowing for all this, the, newcomer i was more than likely, to stroll the I dusty streets and murmur "just another town." j Even in 1906, the community, could look back a long way.

It was In 1893, serving In the . 1st Battalion, King's Royal Rifles, that he landed In Kara chi on the west coast. Even then, he says, what is going on now was freely predicted in .India. For four years he saw plenty of fighting, mainly on the northwest frontier. Once he was shipwrecked, losing everything he had except what he stood In. He served fpr sometime in Mauritius, an island in the Indian Ocean about 500 miles east of Zanzibar and a fruitful source of coffee, sugar and other products. Bill was through the siege of Ladysmlth and In due course received his discharge from the army and settled down in Canada. He ranks among Prince Rupert's best known pioneer citizens and ha: seen a lot of the world. -Wise Woman Our choice winter cloth are styled just for . . . cut- with an eye line-appeal. our smart selection Virgin Wools frosted fine furs . . .
